I think the best thing about the way auto-loot is done is that the items are stored in a virtual 50 slot bag and it retains an item for 1 hour after you loot it.  This really helps me keep on playing instead of the frequent bag management issues i used to have

hopefully see you all tonight

I have parked Cluedo on Korriban waiting to tank you all through the heroics and flashpoints.  won't leave until we all do.

Am leveling an alt to provide some cash.

signing on now

Cluedo is at level 15, ready to tank you all to glory and riches

3 or 4 us just started empire on rubat crystal

I got 3...is there a fourth?

Arkon do you know which ones you need.....for starting planets I know where all the datacrons are.

This Sith warrior I started is a tough bugger....or they made that one quest on Corriban easier...the one where you get the skull and then the elite thing pops up out of a pool of blood......I could never solo that thing before and this time soloed it at level 7 and didn't die once....was a close fight but I made it.

I am at fleet now at level 11.  I am a sith warrior tank.  name is Cluedo (misspelled my own character name)

ugh my sigin name is jaddison80...apparently I am jaddison for other steam steam purposes

I made a character on Rubat.  Cluedo who is a Stih Warrior.  I can go tank route or damage depending on what other people want.  Eastern time zone.  I there is a better character class that fits our mini-group I am happy to change as I like them all and enjoy healing as well.

my steam name is jaddison80

am flexible and fit most schedules starting at about 1900-2000

sent steam friend requests

I would be up for doing this.  i have one of everything Empire and Republic so I don't care which side or what server.

No one mentioned The Crow which is unforgettable for me.

sorry meant I sent you a tell in game not a pm

PMed Blackjack last night when I saw him on but he didn't respond...will try again tonight.

Trooper named Jaddison

made a trooper on the server......Jaddison is my oh so original name

I started the early play yesterday.....if it is okay I will start a character on this server tonight and join the guild.

you do pick a starting "faction"  but your actions also determine your path once you are in game

update: dumbshit award goes to me...I had an illegal character in the password but didn't notice the alert at the top of the form until a long time later, lol

I went to create an account but about 20 tries later I cannot get the form to accept the characters or I can't figure out what the characters are....man do I feel dumb.  I tried listening to it and can't figure that out either.  

So are hte two words typed together or with a space?

I just restarted some characters on Landroval

I am not a liberal or a Democrat but isn't clear that if Ryan's proposal was enacted as is the net effect 20 years down the pike would be the poor and elderly dying off much quicker while the wealthy who can afford health care would live longer lives?  There is precious little in the plan that addresses job creation or even renewing the countries sagging infrastructure...instead it guts renewing the infrastructure.  To me it seems more like a plan to ensure the wealthy remain very wealthy until the country crumbles.

I think they have a spot for her at the Westboro Baptist church.....so could be Fred's honey-bunny

Hell I thought Susan Powter had joined GT when I saw the thread title....and yes I am that old

Blackjack summarizes where I am at with MMOs very well.  You all that have played DC Online see potential....I am tired of playing these games at launch so I can discover that it might be good in a year...waste of my time and money as i see it now.  Part of it is the economic downturn....i have finally learned to exert a little discipline in my buying.

Why try DCO when WoW is keeping me so entertained and I enjoy LotRO from time to time and even Conan though I doubt i will renew my subscription to Conan this time around.

Ah you guys have a big thank you from me....this is the first big MMO I haven't bought and played at launch and now I feel pretty good about that choice.......I am sorry you had to take that bullet for me though.

I would suggest abandoning Darkshore and head over Redridge....it is much more fun though Ashenvale is pretty cool once you get there

time to cancel my preorder it seems

unless I missed something the Goblin starter area took me to 12 before the final battle which after winning I was shipped off to Org

I started a Troll druid on Thursday and haven't had as much fun in an MMO in a long long while.  I was engrossed in playing I would realize that I had leveled 3 times and hadn't seen a trainer.  I have played WoW off and on since launch so I really wasn't expecting to be so totally absorbed.  They have removed most of the game mechanics which were annoying and the quests are fairly interesting and entertaining....and the changes to the zones are very nice. 

Had a hell of a time getting that reactor core cooled down on that one quest in the new zone.

OO has decided (by poll) on a PvE server and Alliance to try and recreate some of the magic from WoW launch and the guild Almost Heroes.

The server is Sisters of Elune, no guild name yet but the more the merrier.

There is no true number 1 for me but there are a few that stand above the rest.

Mists of Avalon

Trinity by Leon Uris, also Exodus

The Killer Angels

Tigana

The Guns of August

Illusions by Richard Bach

Joshua by Joseph Girzone

I think it was within the last decade that Mars, Saturn and Jupiter were fairly close to each other.  Was a treat walking the dog on clear nights

Glitter.  Little you guys have mentioned can come close to Glitter. Gigli anyone?

I have more than a few "lucky to be alive" moments during my time on submarines.  Unfortunately I don't think I can elaborate much.  Twice i was pretty sure more than a few of us onboard would be dead.  Both time i think the "miss" distance was less than 20' probably less than 10'.

While learning to fly i was doing my night flying with my instructor.  We flew over to the Eastern Shore of Md and it was getting late.  We landed there and then headed home.  To save time he filed an IFR flight plan back which would take us right over DC (pre-9/11 by more than a few years).  While fling over DC the ATC turned a Northwest airlines heavy right into us.  My instructor was sort of sight seeing since he had never been over DC at night but fortunately for us I had had relative motion beat into me and had seen lights parallel to us moving past and then heard the call for a heavy to turn to what would a reciprocal of our course.  Sure enough about a mile or so away landing lights (the bright whites) start coming into view dead ahead.  We got the hell out of dodge.  Didn't really terrify me but the magnitude of what had almost happened hit us both after we had landed at Leesburg.  Amazingly nothing happened even though the NW pilot wanted the ATCs ass.  My instructor left aviation less than 6 months later....said it was the closest call he had had and he wasn't making much money as a flight instructor.

Absolute most terrifying two moments for me have been making the decision to take my mother off of support and having to make the decision to put my dog down......if there are more terrifying moments than those two I don't want to know about them.

James and the Cavaliers absolutely quit in the last 5 minutes of their last game against the Celtics.  It was amazing to watch and also amazing the coach did nothing about it.  Hell they were down 9 with over a minute to go and instead a pressing the ball up court just ran time off the clock.......it may have been unlikely they would would get the 9 points but you don't give up.

What choice did the Cavs and Gilbert have but to not say anything because they had built a whole team around him and had no cap space.  Even the the TnT announcers and analysts wouldn't call James and the Cavs out on what was obvious.

Doesn't this issue at it's simplest come down to risk versus reward?

Blizzard risks my privacy and a possible visit from a nut job if I post on WoW forums but it is more important that Blizzard "cleanup" their forums than protect customers privacy and safety.  

This can't be about holding people accountable or as simple as don't post something you wouldn't say face to face because the risk is the lunatic fringe.  Clearly they just want their forums to fold up and thus they clear more profit.

Even if the description of the facility is even half true it still remains that these people were tried and sentenced and served their time as determined by jury or judge but are then denied their freedom.

I do not doubt that their crimes were severe but if they are so severe then the sentence of the court should be the mechanism to deprive them of their freedom not some administrative trick.

If they can do this to them they can come with other "tricks" as they define other types of undesirables.

Both my brother and I had our accounts hacked.  Mine was hacked after I hadn't played in over a year and the same was true of his.

Perhaps all of us on this board are stupid and got hacked on out end but it is interesting to me that whoever these hackers are that they only stole my WoW password that I hadn't used in a year and isn't stored on my computer.....so the premise would be I let myself get hacked and they are smart enough t penetrate my system but only got my WoW password which isn't actually on my computer BUT their hack completely ignored my online banking passwords and credit card passwords which I did use during the period my system would have had to be compromised for the problem to be on my end?  Does that really sound plausible?

The remade True Grit?  What's next Sands of Iwo Jima or The Cowboys?  Maybe they can remake She Wore a Yellow Ribbon.

Ugh

Depending on the scope of the movie(s) they are going to need 2 Rolands.  One weathered and tested and one young fresh faced newly minted gunslinger.

You know Jack Bauer could be Roland...."TELL ME WHERE THE TOWER IS NOW OR DIE!"
